The effect of faculty costs on instruction costs can be mea- sured by recomputing instruction costs for each school, holding one, and then both, faculty cost components constant at the average level for all schools. The extent to which each of these factors account for the variation in instruction costs can then be measured by changes in the standard deviation* Read the entire page →
